Race preview
OSCARS BROTHER can credit former champion apprentice Connor King with a first winner in the training ranks. A thorough stayer, the six-year-old shaped well for his previous trainer when runner-up over this trip in January before opening his account next time at Limerick. Although softer ground would undoubtedly be preferable, the gelding was second on good ground in a point-to-point. Dual winner Femme Magnifique sets the standard off a handicap mark of 119. The Willie Mullins-trained mare made all when easily winning at Downpatrick in June. Point-to-point winner Millforce made a winning debut under rules for Gavin Cromwell at Bellewstown. The son of Workforce has to be respected for his in-form yard.
